Our pupils had an absolutely fantastic time celebrating #WorldBookDay!✨📚

Everyone came to school in their comfiest outfits, including pyjamas, oodies and dressing gowns! Our BIG St Peter’s Read saw the whole school snuggled up together to enjoy a book at the same time. Seeing every class lost in a story was the perfect way to mark World Book Day 👏📚

Thank you to all our pupils, staff and families for making the day such a magical celebration of reading 🙌💙 ... See MoreSee Less

As part of Children's Mental Health Week, we invited our pupils to “come as you are”, encouraging them to dress in whatever makes them feel comfortable, confident, and most authentically themselves 🤝💙

From cosy hoodies to favourite outfits and costumes, today was all about embracing individuality and celebrating the importance of feeling at ease in your own skin ✨

Our Year 5 pupils took part in an Embrace Trust-wide First Phone VR session today - an exciting initiative designed to educate pupils about online safety and the importance of being responsible digital citizens 🌟🌐✅

Using VR headsets, pupils explored real‑life online scenarios in a safe and interactive way, helping them understand how to make smart, informed choices in the digital world 💬💡

We're excited to keep empowering young minds with the knowledge and skills they need to navigate the digital world safely and responsibly.
